Stories like this will soon be a thing of the past dahil magsisimula na this summer ang construction ng eco-friendly international airport sa isla ng Panglao in Bohol. It will feature environmentally-friendly technologies, in line with the province’s thrust in eco-tourism.

Scheduled to be completed in 2017, the airport is designed to accommodate one million passengers annually.

Ayon kay Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) Secretary Jun Abaya, mahalaga ang pag-aayos ng airports para sa ikauunlad ng bansa. “In a country filled with tourist hotspots on islands separated by seas, it is vital to develop and modernize our airports not only to better service our passengers, but to also enable economic growth for our people,” paliwanag niya.
